I will be there Friday evening early, like 5-6 PM. I went on Sunday last time and half the vendors were already packed up and leaving. The lady at the front gate said be there Friday evening or Saturday, and my daughter has a cheer competition all day Saturday.

<-- will be the goofy white guy walking the aisles, stop me and say hello if you are there. Yuck Yuck

Never go to a swapmeet on Sunday, all you'll ever see on Sunday is vendors pulling out!

Going that late usually isn't good either...vendors begin closing down/leaving to grab a bite to eat - you'll see stuff you want to buy and have to go back on Saturday anyway

I will be at work until 4:30 Friday and can't go at all on Saturday since I will be in Garland at a cheerleading competition with my daughter all day. It's either Friday night or not at all. Beisdes, I am between cars so I won't be buying anything anyway. I just want to get back into the swap meet scene since I have not had a project car in 8+ years.

I'll be there. Probably not buying anything, as my $$ are all spoken for.

So who is gonna call Pops, Slider, Jester, and any of the other usual sumbitches that don't make it out for anything anymore? And what's the latest with Blake's fastback? I keep expecting a phone call inviting me to go cruising... :mad:

Take solace in the fact that most of the vendors pull out early on Sunday. That would have also made it suck even with the better weather.

Thats no joke...I looked for you (or anybody else I knew was going) , but gave up after I couldn't feel my face anymore - that wind was a whoopin'
